Chapter 3

Then Solomon began to build the house of the LORD at Jerusalem in mount Moriah, where the LORD appeared unto David his father, in the place that David had prepared in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.

Então Salomão começou a edificar a casa do Senhor em Jerusalém, no monte Moriá, onde o Senhor aparecera a Davi, seu pai, no lugar que Davi tinha preparado na eira de Ornã, o jebuseu.   

And he began to build in the second day of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.

Começou a edificar no segundo dia do segundo mês, no quarto ano do seu reinado.   

Now these are the things wherein Solomon was instructed for the building of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was threescore cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.

Estes foram os fundamentos que Salomão pôs para edificar a casa de Deus. O comprimento em côvados, segundo a primitiva medida, era de sessenta côvados, e a largura de vinte côvados:   

And the porch that was in the front of the house, the length of it was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the height was an hundred and twenty: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.

O pórtico que estava na frente tinha vinte côvados de comprimento, correspondendo à largura da casa, e a altura era de cento e vinte; e por dentro o revestiu de ouro puro.   

And the greater house he cieled with fir tree, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set thereon palm trees and chains.

A câmara maior forrou com madeira de cipreste e a cobriu de ouro fino, no qual gravou palmas e cadeias.   

And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.

Para ornamento guarneceu a câmara de pedras preciosas; e o ouro era ouro de Parvaim.   

He overlaid also the house, the beams, the posts, and the walls thereof, and the doors thereof, with gold; and graved cherubims on the walls.

Também revestiu de ouro as traves e os umbrais, bem como as paredes e portas da câmara, e lavrou querubins nas paredes.   

And he made the most holy house, the length whereof was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty cubits: and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.

Fez também a câmara santíssima, cujo comprimento era de vinte côvados, correspondendo à largura da casa, e a sua largura era de vinte côvados; e a revestiu de ouro fino, do peso de seiscentos talentos.   

And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he overlaid the upper chambers with gold.

O peso dos pregos era de cinqüenta siclos de ouro. Também revestiu de ouro os cenáculos.   

And in the most holy house he made two cherubims of image work, and overlaid them with gold.

Também fez na câmara santíssima dois querubins de madeira, e os cobriu de ouro.   

And the wings of the cherubims were twenty cubits long: one wing of the one cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the other wing was likewise five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.

As asas dos querubins tinham vinte côvados de comprimento: uma asa de um deles, tendo cinco côvados, tocava na parede da casa, e a outra asa, tendo também cinco côvados, tocava na asa do outro querubim;   

And one wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the other wing was five cubits also, joining to the wing of the other cherub.

também a asa deste querubim, tendo cinco côvados, tocava na parede da casa, e a outra asa, tendo igualmente cinco côvados, estava unida à asa do primeiro querubim.   

The wings of these cherubims spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were inward.

Assim as asas destes querubins se estendiam por vinte côvados; eles estavam postos em pé, com os rostos virados para â camara.   

And he made the vail of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and wrought cherubims thereon.

Também fez o véu de azul, púrpura, carmesim e linho fino; e fez bordar nele querubins.   

Also he made before the house two pillars of thirty and five cubits high, and the chapiter that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.

Diante da casa fez duas colunas de trinta e cinco côvados de altura; e o capitel que estava sobre cada uma era de cinco côvados.   

And he made chains, as in the oracle, and put them on the heads of the pillars; and made an hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.

Também fez cadeias no oráculo, e as pôs sobre o alto das colunas; fez também cem romãs, as quais pôs nas cadeias.   

And he reared up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.

E levantou as colunas diante do templo, uma à direita, e outra à esquerda; e chamou o nome da que estava à direita Jaquim, e o nome da que estava à esquerda Boaz.
